Recycled asphalt is simply old asphalt that is ground into aggregate size. When it’s compacted, the material is able to harden and bind together. This makes it a great pick for driveways because it serves as a strong and cost-efficient base or sub-base.

For best results, recycled asphalt should be spread after properly grading and excavating the driveway. Once the material has been laid, it’s best to wet it and compact it with a roller.
